- Description
- The U.S. Department of Energy intends to conduct an acquisition by means other than full and open competition. The anticipated sole source acquisition is to Engineering, Management and Technology, Inc. (EMTI) of Plymouth, MA. The contract will be fixed price and is estimated at approximately $53,500 for a period of two months. EMTI will assist DOE in the review of the INEELs? management and operations contractor plans for the continued safe operation of the Advanced Test Reactor at the Idaho National Engineering Laboratory. A summary technical description and overview of the INEEL and the ATR may be found at http://www.inel.gov/facilities/tra.shtml. The work will require a specific assessment in the following areas: Task 1 - Assess the NE-ID management and operations contractor developed plan, determine if the plan is technically sound, and has properly considered short and long-term risks in the planning assumptions and analyses. Task 2 - Review the cost estimate basis for the plan. Task 3 - Assess whether the issues have been categorized as to the risk to overall health and safety of the workers and/or risk to the continued operation of the ATR. Task 4 - Assess the NE-DC and NE-ID oversight effectiveness of ATR operations. The team should review DOE headquarters and field oversight of the ATR for purposes of determining effectiveness of the oversight and safety assessment approval processes and outcomes. The scope of the review should include oversight process adequacy, oversight process implementation success, and issues identification and relationship of the NE field personnel to the contractor. The task deliverable will be a report sub-divided into three areas - any immediate threat to the health and safety of the worker or continued operation of the reactor, mandatory items that needed to resolved in the next two years and discretionary issues. EMTI has the required experience and capability in both management and oversight of nuclear facility operations. EMTI?s work will ensure that ATR maintains its essential scientific and engineering capacity in the research and development area of safe and effective reactor operations. EMTI personnel have extensive experience and capability based on prior work with the Nuclear Regulatory Commission, DOE and DOD nuclear projects, participation on the Generation IV reactor systems technical roadmap team, participation assisting DOE in process safety management procedures for radioactive waste processing facilities; and assisting DOE senior management in the recovery and restart of several nuclear facilities including the Savannah River production reactors. The exception to competition is 10 US.C 2304(c)(3) ? Industrial mobilization; engineering, developmental, or research capability; or expert services. This is not a notice of availability of a solicitation ? there is no RFP available. Only sources believing they have the requisite capability may respond with a capability statement. Any statements received will be reviewed only to determine if the basis for a sole source procurement no longer exists and the acquisition should then proceed on a competitive basis. Responses must be received no later than January 5, 2004. Point of contact is T. Wade Hillebrant, Contracting Officer.
